[PATCH] selftests/ftrace: fix event-no-pid on 1-core machine

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski
Date: Wed Jun 23 2021 - 03:04:40 EST


When running event-no-pid test on a small machines (e.g. cloud 1-core
instance), other events might not happen:

+ cat trace
+ cnt=0
+ [ 0 -eq 0 ]
+ fail No other events were recorded
[15] event tracing - restricts events based on pid notrace filtering [FAIL]

Schedule a simple sleep task to be sure that some other process events
get recorder.
